  • 3. VIRTUAL MACHINE: It’s a good option if you don’t want to mess-up your computer or acquire a dedicated machine to run your application. The following are most popular virtual machines.  Oracle Virtual box http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads  MS Virtual PC http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx  VM-Player http://downloads.vmware.com/d/info/desktop_downloads/vmware_player/3_0 I will discuss Virtual box here and will illustrate the installation step by step. The latest release from Oracle Corp: is VirtualBox 4.0.4 (for different hosts like Windows, Linux, Solaris and OS X - Mac) It’s totally free and you can download it from:- http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads (Size: 77.2MB) Let’s perform a step by step installation. 1. Double click on “VirtualBox-4.0.4-70112-Win.Exe”, you will see the Welcome message. Press NEXT and go to step # 2 2. You need 116Mb of free space and a minimum 2GB of RAM to run this application. You can choose the installation location and customise the components. As shown in this screen (this is the default configuration) 3|Page
  • 4. If you want to customise the standard settings, go ahead and make changes but if you are pretty much agree with defaults - press NEXT and proceed to step # 3 3. Asking to create shortcuts for you – change as you like and press NEXT for step # 4 4. Warning message for the network interface – This step will inform you that the network connection will be temporarily disconnected. Press YES and proceed to Step # 5 4|Page
  • 5. 5. Ready to install message – press INSTALL to begin the installation Oracle Corp: serial bus driver installation dialog. Press INSTALL to proceed 5|Page
  • 6. 6. Final step and the last screen. Press FINISH to finalise the VirtualBox installation on your computer. CONFIGURING THE MACHINE: Double click on VirtualBox shortcut to load the VirtualBox manager In VirtualBox, click on NEW – the new machine setup wizard will be launched and guide you through the steps. The first step is to choose the Guest OS. VirtualBox offers a comprehensive list of Operating Systems, we have to choose one from the drop down list: 6|Page
  • 7. o Microsoft Windows o Linux o BSD (Unix) o Solaris o IBM OS/2 o Mac OS X o Other In our case – I am going to install Server 2008 64bit so select the Vendor Name and OS Version from the drop down list. Provide a name for this machine, in my case – “Server 2008 for SBO” The next step is to select the amount of dedicated RAM for the proposed machine. It all depends on your available physical RAM in the host machine. 7|Page
  • 8. VirtualBox will make a virtual disk to use with your machine. You can create a new disk or can use an existing one – remember to mark it bootable because it’s your primary hard drive in the machine. Press NEXT to proceed Welcome message from the virtual disk creation wizard. Choose the hard drive type – Dynamic / expandable or fixed-size storage. The Dynamic disk is created with minimum blocks of actual hard drive and expands in size with use. Fixed-size occupies the whole block at once to maximum limits. 8|Page
  • 9. Label your virtual drive and choose a path to save your V-Drive and you can customise your drive size. Final summary of your proposed virtual disk. In the summary view, you can see the drive type, size and path. Press FINISH to create the virtual drive. 9|Page
  • 10. The next step is summary of the virtual machine – It shows the machine name, OS type, base memory and drive size. Again press FINISH to create the machine – it will take couple of minutes to make the Machine ready (speed depends on the host Processor and RAM). The VirtualBox manager always shows you a list of available machines and when you scroll down to a specific machine, it shows you the configuration of the machine. You can also can change your machine configuration any time. It’s simple and easy – chose your machine and click on the Settings option from the main menu. 10 | P a g e
  • 11. A beautiful feature of VirtualBox is that you can create identical machines in no time. It's simple and easy - Go to FILE and then Export Appliance Wizard. Follow the prompts to make an export package. In the same way you can import applications to make a new machine. To change the configuration of an existing machine, select the machine from the list of available machines. Press setting button and you will see the configuration menu I am just dumping few screen shorts. They all are pretty much self explanatory and for complete documentation you can refer to the VirtualBox documentation, which is installed on your computer or go to http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/TracGuide 11 | P a g e

  • 26. “Business one 2007” offers three ways to go - Typical, Compact or Custom. This is one of the core components of “SAP Business One 2007”, it comprises of 1. System Database (Common Database) 2. Demo database (Country dependent) 3. Server components 4. SAP Add-on 5. Help In Custom Installations you have the option to choose amongst the given options but remember that “System database” and “Server components” are essential to run the system. If you decide to go with Compact installation – Only “System database” and “Server components” will be installed Typical installation will install all above mentioned components silently. Anyway I am assuming that you will go with TYPICAL option. Press NEXT and screen (Fig: 28A) will appear. It’s actually a confirmation of the database you installed. If a database is installed on your system (as we have done), the installer will ask for server- Type. If you have more than one database installed on your system then a drop down menu will show a list of installed databases. Or you can overwrite the type of your database. In our case “MSSQL_2005”, press NEXT to proceed. You will screen like (Fig:28B) - You must enter database credentials. 26 | P a g e
  • 27. Server Name: [Local] User Id: sa Password: SAPB1Admin (As we set during DB installation) Press NEXT to proceed.

Again press NEXT on screen (Fig: 30) to start copying files to you your computer system. 27 | P a g e
  • 28. The installation process can take around 5 – 10 minutes (depend on your machine). Various information screens will appear and the installation will keep going. Unfortunately you will face two error messages during the installation as shown in fig:31. Simply press OK. I can’t judge the reason of this error – but this will not affect installation process or functionality of SBO - Error databases will also be installed and they all are operational and working. . The final screen (fig: 32) will appear, press OK to finish the installation process. 28 | P a g e
  • 29.

  • 34. POST INSTALLATION TASKS: Before you move forward the most important step is “SAP Service Manager”. This should be on your server; it manages all server related services like: 1. Early Watch Alerts 2. SBO Backup 3. SAP Business EventSender service 4. SAP Business One integration Service 5. SBO DI Server 6. License Manager 2007 How to check if the Service Manager is running on your SBO server? If you find the following icon in your system tray, the Service Manager is up and running. If not, run setup.exe from the “packagesserver tools” folder on your installation CD. e.g. “…..PackagesServer ToolsSetup.exe” When you find the service manager icon in your system tray, right click on it and open “Open SAP Business One Service Manager”. As shown here The Service Manager console will appear: In the Console Manager interface, we have server (localhost name), Service name and starting style like start service by yourself or at starting of computer. Control panel – Play, Pause and stop control Service controlling tasks like schedule, setting, connection and database. 34 | P a g e
  • 35. You can choose service from the dropdown list and the controls will stay the same like play, pause and stop. It might be possible via the Settings buttonto apply changes according to the service type. EARLY WATCH ALERT: This service will help you prevent unexpected system down (not for fast disaster), this service will send you all kinds of serious alets before it get worse and stops your server. The Early Watch service collects SBO health data in a generated report. This report can be sent to the System Administrator as configured. Alters can be scheduled to run and to send Specific data - Daily - Weekly - Monthly Database connection settings needs some information for the connection like:- Database type: SQL/MySQL or Oracle Databse Server: Local or IP address of DB server Database super username: sa Database user password: SAPB1Admin 35 | P a g e
  • 36. After establising connection, choose the database you want to watch. Press the database button and tick the data from the given list. By pressing the “Setting” button on the Early Watch alert service console, you will reach to this screen. Here you have the option to dispatch report by email to given addresses. Enter super username and password, the remaining options are self explanatory. Write log, allows you to save the file on given path or display after generating the report and so on. What event suits to your need chose and press OK to save the changes you made. SBO BACKUP: With the help of this service we can automate the backup task. Here is a screen dump of backup service console. Again a control panel with play, pause and stop. Service startup option at computer startup. Four buttons for Advanced Configuration. I will expalain each configuration button. The Scheduler is exactly the same as the Service setup. So I am not going to repeat it again and again with each service Set the path of backup directory for permament storage and for temorary stoge of temp files. 36 | P a g e
  • 37. Again database connetion setting to retreive the data for the report production. It same throughout the setup so I am repeating it again and again. Tick the database in which you are interested, list of all available database lists will be displayed here. You can choose more than one database. SAP BUSINESS ONE EVENTSENDER SERVICE: As I mentioned before few setting are same for all services like schedule, connection and database. Most of the time settings are different for each service.

  • 43. SBO DI (DATA INTEGRATION) SERVER: Data Intergration is one of the core components for SBO. It performs the intergration tasks across various modules. Screen shots are attached here. 43 | P a g e
  • 44. LINCENSE MANAGER 2007: This is the most important service. For the first 30 days you can use SBO free but after the trial period expires, you must obtain a license otherwise you can’t connect to the database or perform any task. Licence setting screen shots are provided here. If you installed a valid license on another server, the connection service can pick it up if you provide the necessery datails such as server name or server IP. The default port is 30000 The Settings section of the General settings can retreive system number, installation number and harware key when succesfully connected to license server. If you have a license key file on your computer, you can import it with the help of this section. First press the browse button (red color) and then press the “import license file” button. The SAP license key is not like Microsoft Wndows 25 charcter long key. For the SBO license you have to create a hardware signature of your server and send it to SAP AG. They will in turn create a license key on the basis of the harware signature provided. 44 | P a g e
  • 45. If you change your harware you require a new license key. For more information please visit SAP AG web site. http://www1.sap.com/solutions/licensingmodel/index.epx COMPANY SETUP IN SBO The scope of this guide is to provide a typical company setup in SBO. The detailed discussion of modules is beyond the scope of this guide.

Provide the server credentials to connect to the server, in my case I put super user “sa” and SAP given default password “SAPB1Admin” On successful connection, the available database in server will appear as shown below: Press the “New” button to create a new database for my proposed company. Type your company name and provide a name for your database. Each country has its own accounting system (charts of account), SBO has a comprehensive list of countries. When you will select country, SBO will automatically pick the COA and other company related settings. You can still define customized accounts by choosing the “User- 46 | P a g e

Insert the IP address of your license server or localhost if it is all on one machine. The default port is 30000. If your credentials are not accepted as per the next screen shot, you may have an expired license. If successful, you will see the following screen shot. In the above screen you can notice that we have, main menu on the top, next is tool bar. Then the “side main menu” and the message bar in the bottom. I have attached the “Side main menu” for a closer look. This menu displays the current database (Victoria Uni), current user (Manager) and a standard menu with three tabs. I have highlighted the tabs and other information with different colour. 48 | P a g e
